More than 4.6 million Americans, including more than 1.1 million people in Florida alone, will not be able to cast a ballot in midterm elections this fall because of state laws banning people with felony convictions from voting.
A report from the Sentencing Project “makes it clear that millions of our citizens will remain voiceless in the upcoming midterms,” according to a statement from the group’s executive director Amy Fettig.
